It’s the bottom of the ninth, score tied, one out, and a runner on third. Your opponent is playing his infield in, looking for a squeeze play. Your batter’s a weak hitter. Will you try the squeeze anyway – or let him swing away? Will you hold your runner at third except for a hit or error? The game is on the line…. What will you do?

Major league baseball is the most popular summer sport in the USA, with a fan base of many millions. D20 Baseball is a card (and dice) driven simulation of the game, playable in about an hour. It’s based on current statistics, and will delight fans with realistic play and accurate results. No teams, so it's just you against your opponent on equal terms.

During the game, players select a card from their hands for each batter’s plate appearance, sometimes face up, sometimes face down. When revealed, only one of the cards will be used to determine the outcome: hit, walk, out, etc. A D20 (20-sided die) is often used to select one of multiple results on a card. The two played cards can also determine which player must play his or her card face up for the next plate appearance.

D20 Baseball follows all rules and tactics of major league baseball, and includes sacrifices, squeeze plays, stolen bases, stretching for an extra base, playing the infield in, and so forth. Unlike other boardgames where the dice-rolling becomes tedious, in D20 Baseball you’ll feel tension from the card play – and that you’ve actually been in a real game after nine innings. Highly portable and easy to play, D20 Baseball is sure to please baseball aficionados of all ages.
